Author: Mrs. Alice Flowerdew, 1759-1801 Appears in 155 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Fountain of mercy, God of love,
How rich Thy bounties are!
The rolling seasons, as they move,
Proclaim Thy constant care.
2 When in the bosom of the earth
The sower hid the grain,
Thy goodness marked its secret birth,
And sent the early rain.
3 The spring's sweet influence, Lord, was Thine;
The plants in beauty grew;
Thou gav'st refulgent suns to shine,
And the refreshing dew.
4 These various mercies from above
Matured the swelling grain;
A kindly harvest crowns Thy love,
And plenty fills the plain.
5 We own and bless Thy gracious sway;
Thy hand all nature hails;
Seed-time nor harvest, night nor day,
Summer nor winter, fails. Topics: Seasons and Occasions; Harvest Hymns; Seasons, the ; Seedtime and Harvest ; Providence; Spring; Thanksgiving Harvest; Rain Used With Tune: FINGAL
